ASSEMBLY-SHIFT MOTOR/MODE SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The shift motor (1) consists of a permanent magnet D.C. motor with gear reduction to convert a high speed-low torque device into a low speed-high
torque device. The output of the device is coupled to a shaft which internally moves the mode and range forks that change the transfer case operating
ranges. The motor is rated at 25 amps maximum at 72°F with 10 volts at the motor leads.
OPERATION
The transfer case shift motor responds to the Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) commands to move the transfer case shift sector
bi-directionally, as required, to obtain the transfer case operating mode indicated by the instrument panel mounted selector switch.
